Theoretical Modeling and Computational Aspects on Sustainability: Financial and Socio-Economic Implications

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, sustainability is a fully acknowledged principle, embraced at all levels of government, policy-making, and management. It concerns and affects almost all aspects of our lives, from health and finance to environment and tourism, from logistics and supply chain to technology, from sovereign debt and (digital) economy to gender and climate, just to list a few. The complexity of the thematic relationships and links between these subfields is recognized in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted by the United Nations, which encompasses several cross-cutting issues ranging from a wide spectrum of key subjects.

This special issue aims at bringing together articles from interdisciplinary fields presenting CUTTING-EDGE studies that reflect the complexity and the multifaceted impact of sustainability. Contributions on large-scale data, experimental, computational, and theoretical approaches relating to sustainability assessment, management and FORECASTING are welcome, with a particular emphasis on papers focusing on the financial, economic, and social topics and their impact at macro level.

The endorsed recommended approaches are related to, but not restricted to, the following methods or fields:

• economic modeling
• financial networks
• risk management
• supply-chain management
• complex systems
• econophysics
• artificial intelligence
• optimization
• high-performance computing
• agent-based modeling.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
